North Korea Involved in Anime Production
Context:
The producers of *Dahlia in Bloom*, an upcoming isekai romance anime, released a statement addressing a report that North Korean animation studio SEK Studio/April 26 Animation Studio worked on the series.
What Happened:
- Initially, Typhoon Graphics (*Why Raeliana Ended Up at the Duke's Mansion*) was commissioned to produce the anime.
- Typhoon Graphics outsourced parts to Chinese production companies.
- One Chinese company allegedly outsourced work to a North Korean studio.
- Following the allegations, the producers requested a list of all animation studios involved.
- One Chinese studio refused to comply with the audit.
- The production committee concluded there might be North Korean involvement and decided to re-produce all relevant parts with domestic staff before broadcasting.
Industry Insight:
The anime industry heavily relies on outsourcing and freelance work, with only 47.3% of [animators in Japan being permanent/in-house employees](https://www.cbr.com/anime-kingdom-director-why-no-stable-job-reveal/), according to a JAniCA survey.
